That was the first book I read, on my own from start to finish, as a kid 😊.

Light, or lack of it.

A black and white photograph showing an aircraft rising into the sky above. The sun creating a flare of light to the right hand side of the picture with a barbed wire topped fence and bushes in the foreground. White clouds bubble up from the bottom of the picture.

‘Escape to the sun’. Yet more #SlowPhotography with a Zenit B, Leningrad meter and Delta 400 film, but this time using the tiny Industar 50mm lens. The unintentional lens flare adds to this one. #blackandwhitephotography #BelieveInFilm #filmphotography #photography #filmisnotdead

The latest aquisition is always a kind of favourite, so Zeiss Ikon Icarette 496/1. Then again, I've been using FED Zarya a lot lately, so that counts also as a favourite. A camera I wouldn't part with at any cost is my Dad's Miranda Fv.

A scan of an old Agfa Isopan F film found on a camera. Nothing recognizable is visible on the badly focused and degraded film.

Another scan of an old Agfa Isopan F film found on a camera. Lots of out-of-focus, overlapping frames, also the film's age has degraded the quality.

At least I got some laughs... 🤣.

It seems that whoever took these photos didn't have a slightest clue about how this camera worked. Almost all the frames were overlapped, and obviously the lens was in the withdrawn position all the time...
Nothing wrong with the camera itself 😊.

Currently stand-developing a found-in-a-camera 120 rollfilm (Agfa Isopan F). Interesting to see whether there's still something to see 🤔.

Couldn't wait to see what you get out of redscaled Turquoise 😁.

The name 'Ballarat' always reminds me of the Sherlock Holmes story "The Boscombe Valley Mystery" (one of my favorities).

Again, I just love DS!

A 620 type roll film spool, Introduced by Kodak in 1932, fitting perfectly to a camera designed in 1912? Did one of Ica engineers designing the Icarette have a power of precognition, or is this just a happy accident?

A closeup of the stepped film spool guiding pin on a 1928 Icarette camera: the thicker part fits inside the 117/120 spool, the thinner part is suitable for the 620 spool.

The 117 film (spool almost as on 120, but the end flanges are considerably smaller; film is only half the length of 120) was discontinued in 1949. You can cut the flanges on a 120 roll film to try out, but is still a tight fit. Surprisingly, the much later 620 spools fit perfectly 🤨🤔.

A 1928 Zeiss Ikon (originally Ica) Icarette 496/1 folding camera. it has a Tessar f/4,5 75mm lens on a Compur dial-set shutter. The lever beside the ivory scale plate controls the focusing.

A 1928 Zeiss Ikon Icarette 496/1 folding camera. The small lever beside the rail selects the base focusing level for either film or plate usage. The wire finder contraption is called an 'Iconometer'.

The Icarette folds up to a very small package.

The plate photographing covers with the closeable red (actually orange) film counter window. These could be replaced either with a glass focusing screen or a photographic plate holder.

Ica Icarette I is a curious little camera. Originally launched in 1912, it soldiered on until mid-'30s, changing ownership on the way.
This 1928 Zeiss Ikon-badged Icarette 496/1 was designed to be able to use both 117 roll film and 4,5x6 cm glass plates.

Hi Lola! Why so serious?

Space 1999 set design. Production designer / art direction by Keith Wilson with Michael Ford (Space 1999 first aired 1975-77)

Love that color.

Beautiful indeed

"Sometimes"? I would say "Every time"😁. Wonderful shot.

An old jetty surrounded by trees on the bank of the Dordogne river. The water is inky black. The sun is creating lens flare across the top of the image, and the backlit trees glow with white light. This is an infrared photo.

Imperfections - lens flare and a wonky angle - the consequences of using a very basic camera. Sometimes this works out just fine.

An old folder camera designed in the pre-WW1-years, originally an Ica Icarette I (496), re-badged as 'Zeiss Ikon'. I'm not quite sure whether this example should be called a Zeiss Ikon Icarette 496/1 (1928-1929) or a Zeiss Ikon Icarette 512/16 (1930-1934). It can use either 120 roll film (6x6) or 6x4,5 plates.

Damn!

No, I don't need another camera. No, I don't want another camera. No, not even if it is a '20s folder. Definitely not yet another Zeiss Ikon, I have already five. Not even if it is actually a re-badged ICA. No. No. No. No. Нет. いいえ...
